• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Writing a webpage for a Davis wx station on a private website

Weather station / internet gurus: currently (and for last 100 years) our webpage uploading from our computer has looked like this old fashioned beauty……using a Davis Vantage Pro 2 station
To do this I have to write a new version of both .htx and .htm pages (which I detest having to do) if I want to make any changes
Does anyone know of a simple and nicely presented page of data that will upload from our computer (*not* using W’link IP) without me having to brush up on my html every single time?

This is one area that the AI LLMs might be useful, try copying/pasting the code into ChatGPT and asking it for a mobile-friendly version.

Otherwise you could try taking the master table out of the layout and just have all of the individual pieces display inline (meaning they stack on a mobile device and wrap like text on a bigger screen).

If the the graphs in the right-hand column are just images, you could add style="display:inline-block;" to each img tag to make them all stack on mobile and wrap like text on larger screens.

The tables of data on the left hand side can probably stay as they are, just wrap them in divs with the inline-block style:

This would go before the start of each table:

<div style="display:inline-block;">

Then close each one with the closing div tag:

</div>
